Do you prefer to RP in existing worlds or in original worlds crafted by the GM? How about as a GM, which do you prefer to build an RP around?

My preference is usually existing worlds but it's not a hard and fast rule. As a GM it's a tough call, existing universes can mean you have much less work to do but building your own gives you far more control.

I feel like y'all know how I lean. Even if I choose an existing world I like to twist and morph it into something else.
The downside to original worlds is most definitely trying to fit into the world though. With an existing series you can easily look up the worldbuilding and lore and morph a character into that. Hard to work some concepts like, say a magical samurai if you have no idea if an equivalent to bushido culture exists in the setting.
